Thank you!
Thank you! And that was an amazing game. Didn't care for the second one sadly.
I see what you mean, thank you!
Thank you!
Ohhh, thank you!
Looks fantastic, thank you!
Thank you! That guide will be helpful.
Trying a more detailed view of water droplets. How did I do?

Yeah that's my thoughts too...
I'm trying to paint water droplets, thoughts?

One day she'll accept the trade-off, losing a piece of her humanity. She'll look back and see the wisdom in it. But not today. Today she just wants back what she's lost. (Oh this better, updated last sentence: Today she screams.)

As much as I like cybernetics and media with it, I don't want it. I have a few irrational fears, this is one. The other is finding a toilet in a dream and using it.
Every other entry in this series has been at peace with or loved the trade-off. But I wouldn't and when I saw the reference image I knew exactly what I was going to paint with it. Someone tortured with the choice.
I also love Fredrik Backman, Bear Town is one of my all time favorites. The way he gets me to feel emotions with his words is something else. So the blurb above is my attempt in his style.
Thoughts? Also is the rain convincing?
Can't really have a Shadowrun / Cyberpunk series without a full conversion borg can you? I spent more time on this than anything else this year. Getting the bronze and steel metals right was critical. What do you think I should do next in this series?

As you know I'm on this Shadowrun / Cyberpunk kick and I wanted to do my version of the spider robot in the 1996 Ghost in the Shell. I realized I did that once so what if I went back and just redid the original from a few years ago? 2024 below, 2026 in the title image.
I still like both, my drawing of the robot is a bit better but the rendering is completely different. Both are at the peak of what I was able to do at the time.

Occasionally there are nice sunny days in Seattle. So here is a pleasant day for a citizen that isn't being hunted or anything else tense. No glowing eyes this time, I didn't think it fit. Though I tried to add them multiple times and just liked her eyes as is.
I just noticed I missed background painting between her arm and body in the center of the screen... Damn.

Maybe I'll get my fill of this style of character eventually. But it's not yet. This was a blast to paint! She looks like a badass not to be messed with.

Shadowrun
It was a simple heist. We slip away during the gala, grab the dragon-scale jewelry, done.
Vex had one job to do.
Vex failed.
The plan fell apart. Bullets everywhere. I barely escaped. Everyone else fell.
But Vex. Vex escaped too.
I know because I’m looking at Vex.
Writing prompt: What happens next?

Shadowrun
Alright, I'm having fun with this! The eyes do it for me for whatever reason. Is the robotic arm too much?

It was suggested I post this here too. I hope you like it!

A few folks mentioned my last piece looked more cyberpunk and less magical. I decided to lean into it as I loved Shadowrun and Johnny Mnemonic in my youth. What are your thoughts on the character?

Saw this in the parking lot as we were leaving the theater (Supergirl).
Looks like $150k+ and all six wheels drive. From 480hp to 800hp motor options. I would love to hear and see this thing run. This one has the truck bed armor paint option which is wild to see in person. One part really tough one part sparkly.
